This is a holiday story about an accident at a store. In it several lives are touched. The goal, or moral, was that we all need each other. We need to step out and do something more then just get through the day.

Maxine is going to die. But in some way she had already died. Going to the mercantile Christmas Eve morning, was her last hope. She needed what was on the list badly.
Mr. Winters was just trying to make a living.
The store owner had no idea what was going to change his life, until it happened.
Tess, screamed and curdled milk.

God Bless your holidays. Make them special. Treat each other as if it is the last time you will ever see them again.
